Annihilation was a 2006 cosmic crossover from Keith Giffen, that spun off into, Silver Surfer, Super-Skrull, Nova, and Ronan the Accuser, with Drax and Thanos as preludes,and did a lot to set up the world thagt the Guardians Of The Galaxy movies would draw from. It also saw The Annihilation Wave, a large armada of warships under the control of Annihilus, attack the universe from the Negative Zone fighting against the Nova Corps. Might Annihilation 2099 tell us what happened to the wave 75 years after the present day?

Marvel 2099 comic books were first published in 1992 as a possible future of the Marvel Universe, Originally announced by Stan Lee as a series entitled The Marvel World of Tomorrow, developed by Lee and John Byrne, then as a line named Marvel 2093, John Byrne stepped away over creative differences, and took his ideas to the Next Men universe as 2112, from Dark Horse Comics. Doom 2099, Punisher 2099, and Spider-Man 2099 were joined by original character Ravage 2099 created by Stan Lee, and Paul Ryan. The line expanded to include 2099 Unlimited, Fantastic Four 2099, Ghost Rider 2099, Hulk 2099, X-Men 2099, and X-Nation 2099. The line declined with the nineties bust and eventually all titles were cancelled, though they have returned sporadicaly since. Spider-Man 2009 became part of the Spider-Verse and X-Men 2099 time travelled to join the island of Krakoa in the present day.
